Introduction
Engineered to be an intelligent power distribution solution, the PE4104G IP Control Box ships with 4 power outlets in an IEC socket configuration. It provides secure, centralized, intelligent, and remote power management of data center IT equipment to minimize the operating cost.
The PE4104G features remote power control function, allowing you to control devices attached to the PDU at the PDU device level from practically any location via a TCP/IP connection. The power sequence design eliminates the risks for a power inrush to guarantee reliable operation and protects the overall system health. With the support for eco DC software, it provides an easy method for managing multiple devices, offering an intuitive and user-friendly Graphical User Interface that allows you to configure a PDU device and reboot the device in case any equipment lock-up occurs. The administrators can switch on/off or set a delay time for each power outlet or individual power outlets group whenever, wherever.
The PE4104G boasts a slim, compact form factor and supports desk mount as well as rack mount, ensuring easy installation in confined spaces. It is a smart power control box tailored for hospitality or retail applications, such as digital signages and video walls, for edge computing devices, including routers, servers and cameras, or for any data center environments where there is no need to keep the servers powered on at all times.

Sensors are optional accessories. You can use the PE4104G unit without sensors. However, if you want to have complete energy management of an instrumented data center with the use of the PE4104G, you would need to use eco DC software and install sensor to generate a complete energy-efficient data and chart. Higher sensor installation density is helpful to generate more accurate data. A sensor-enabled installation is required to generate a more complete energy-efficient data and chart. Higher sensor installation density is helpful to generate more accurate data.Available sensors are show in the table, below:

Sensors can be managed via the PE4104G’s built-in graphical user interface (GUI) or with the eco DC software that can be downloaded from the ATEN website.
Cable holders are optional accessories. For added safety, use ATEN Lok-U- Plug cable holders to secure the cables from your attached devices in place on the eco PDU unit. Use only the ATEN Lok-U-Plug cable holders that have been specifically designed to work with the eco PDU. Using any other kind of cable securing device could be highly dangerous.

Hardware Setup
Important safety information regarding the placement of this device is provided on page 61. Please review it before proceeding.
The PE4104G can be mounted vertically on the outside of the rack and a few options are available.
If you wish to keep your unit on a desktop, attach the footpads (in the package content) and place the unit on any appropriate level surface that can safely support its weight plug the weight of its attached cables.
1.Decide where you would rack mount the unit and choose the place you would attach the rack mount ear (Position 1, 2, 3, or 4). As an example, we will choose to attach the mounting ears shown below (position 3).

Chapter 2. Hardware Setup
To set up your PE4104G installation, refer to the numbered steps in the installation diagram below (the numbers in the diagram correspond to the numbered steps), and do the following:
1.Ground the PE4104G by connecting one end of a grounding wire to the Grounding Terminal and the other end to a suitable grounded object.
Note: Do not omit this step. Proper grounding helps to prevent damage to the unit from power surges or static electricity.
2.For each device you want to connect, connect its power cable to any available outlet on the unit. Optionally, use ATEN Lok-U-Plug cable holders to secure them. See Securing the Cable, page 10.
3.Connect an internet-enabled LAN cable into the unit’s LAN Port.
4.(Optional) If you are to use an environmental sensor in your installation, connect it to the RJ-11 Sensor Port located on the unit’s front panel.
5.(Optional) If you are to use a door sensor in your installation, connect it to the Door Sensor Dry-Contact Port located on the unit’s front panel.
6.Use the provided Power Cord to connect the unit’s Power Inlet Socket to an AC power source.
7.Once you have finished these installation steps, you can turn on the connected devices.
